Given that a month ago, Cyanogen announced that their operating system, CyanogenMod, has surpassed the user numbers of Windows Mobile and Blackberry combined, things aren’t all that bright for Microsoft.

Windows 10 was finally released on the 29th of July. If you’re running Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 8.1, then you’re eligible for a free upgrade to Windows 10 in the first year of its release. There are two ways by which you could upgrade your machine with Windows 10.

If you have been following our posts here, then you would have known about Windows 10 release, its pros and cons and that it’s available as a free upgrade for Windows 7 and Windows 8 owners. You should also be able to upgrade to it by, either using Microsoft Media Creation Tool or, using the standard upgrade icon on the status bar.

What are your expectations of a good first person shooter game? Battlefield Hardline is the sum of awesome action, great game play and notable plot. With incredible voice actors adding life to the characters, you can expect to be entertained with every cut-scene.

It was just months ago in January 2015 that we were talking about the Fifth Generation release from Intel codenamed Broadwell processors for desktops, laptops, tablets and hybrids. The processor offered modest performance boosts and increased cell life. However, the next version of the Microprocessor was already waiting in the wings to be released soon, as there was considerable delay in release of Broadwell chip.

Throughout the years, many Linux enthusiasts have waited and waited for the eventual “Year of the Linux Desktop” to come. They’ve been laughed at by the Windows and OS X users every single time, but this time, that year might actually come.
